Refresh With Cottonelle: For A Clean You Can Feel...

How well did you treat your bum today? When SITSGirls sent out the initial announcement about the Cottonelle Care Routine's Let's Talk About Bums campaign, I was thoroughly amused by the subject matter. I mean, how often do we get approached by total strangers who want to know the details of our bum cleaning routine? Right away, I imagined a fine, well dressed gentleman, mike in hand, cameras in tow, walking up to a lady at Grand Central Station, NY saying: "Ma'm, Let's talk about your bum. Do you Cottonelle?" I laughed so hard and so did my twins when I told them. I grew up with bidets and figured this campaign could be fun, so, I signed on pronto.

Who would have thought that writing a dedicated post on the subject of bums could induce so much humor? Sure, we all have bums; we all have bodily functions, and yet, we often avoid having discussions on the subject. Why? For starters, without a touch of humor, it can be an awkward conversation to have... and there's never a "right time." Most of us blush when someone broaches the subject because we like to keep our bathroom habits private. However, even though talking about our bum action/routine might be embarrassing, avoiding the topic won't make it go away. Bummer, right? Avoidance means we might miss out on learning a better way to get clean. That’s why Cottonelle Care Routine partnered with the witty, chatty, and funny Cherry Healey to nudge people to chat about the way they wipe. Have you seen the ads or watched the video? How well does this compare to your bum care routine?

"You do live longer with bran, but you spend the last fifteen years on the toilet." Alan King

When I received my lovely care package, I opened the box to find a pack of four toilet paper rolls and a flushable cleansing cloth dispenser. it was time to make nice and be kind to my behind. Earlier, I shared above that I've used bidets as part of my cleansing routine, so the idea of wipes made perfect sense.
I loved the texture of the toilet paper and wipes, soft yet firm, and the wipes weren't soggy but moist enough to give a thorough clean. While it might feel weird at first to incorporate cleansing cloths into our bathroom routine, ultimately, the combo leaves us with a clean and fresh feeling that's truly impressive; I was ready for
anything. Using the wipes in conjunction with the toilet paper felt terrific and doubly clean. You've got to experience it to believe it... the Cottonelle care routine works. I love it and I bet your tushy will love it too. More below!

good toilet humor.” Adrian Edmondson

Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloth Dispenser and Toilet Roll

Q: What did one toilet say to the
other? A: You look a bit flushed!

Still with me? Have any good toilet jokes? We all use toilets and love the jokes that come with them. We also love great looking toilet accessories. Another thing I loved about the Cottonelle package I received is the elegant, compact, and discreet design of the Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing
Cloths dispenser. It is now available in a sleek, newly designed, upright beige dispenser that makes it easier for everyone in my household to enjoy the clean and fresh feeling of the Cottonelle
Care Routine. The dispenser is refillable so all you need to do is to replenish your empty dispenser with refill packs. The discreet design blends in beautifully in my bathroom and the size makes it both portable and easy to display. The wipes have a delicate, clean smell that won't overwhelm your bathroom and they are septic and sewer safe. I invite you to try the Cottonelle Care Routine for yourself. Cottonelle Toilet Paper and
Cottonelle Flushable Cleansing Cloths are designed to work together for a clean we can feel. Join the conversation by visiting the Cottonelle Facebook page
and let’s talk about your bum.

Some Food for Thought:
Have you tried the Cottonelle Clean Routine? If yes, What did/didn't you love about it?If no, What stands in
your way and what would it take to move you forward? Do you have a bum care routine? How does your bum care differ from the Cottonelle Clean Routine? Keeping body and mind in the best shape is key to staying healthy. If you don't have a clean routine, Can you start today?
Love and Peace in 2013.

Thank you Farida for your feedback! It was a fun exercise and informative too. I know it can be an awkward topic for some but the subject matter is important to all of us and we can respond without divulging too much. Thanks again! I don't know where our fellow members are... :-)Eliz

I think back here in the Philippines, soap and water is most important, then toilet paper last. Haha! I don;t think I can just live with toilet paper alone. Thanks for sharing such detailed review, Eliz!

i guess most of us here prefer the toilet paper, water & soap ritual. if i'm not in the house, bidets and wipes are very essential. but this is a great review. maybe they'll actually think of exporting to other countries too?

Like Marielle Faye Garcia, water and soap is important here in the Philippines. Hmm maybe the rich also have the tissues and bidets. But commoners like, water and soap is a must. I also used the left hand in doing the washing :-p

I guess in our country, it's always been soap and water in most homes, like what Marielle said...and then there are some, like Farida who use toilet paper as well. The wipes are when you're not at home to do the deed lol! Even with wet wipes, it just doesn't feel clean enough without the traditional soap and water.

About Me

Growing up on three continents has exposed me to people/places that are culturally rich and varied. My interests in learning, teaching and traveling continue to inform my work as a training specialist.
I have three blogs on three blogging platforms: I love writing my Blogger posts at: Positive Kismet - http://www.positivekismet.com/, my WordPress posts at: Mirth and Motivation - http://mirthandmotivation.com/ and my Tumblr posts at http://thehugginghearts.com/
I enjoy visiting other bloggers websites and encouraging them. Unless we reach out and connect with other writers regularly, blogging can be a somewhat lonely endeavor.
My family, friends, faith and colleagues have been instrumental to my growth as a writer/blogger. over the years, I've learned a lot and, as I continue to master my craft and learn new skills, I always remember to be grateful. Most importantly, I remember to support others.
For several years, I signed off with eof777 - an abbreviation of my longer full name and love of aeronautics - Elizabeth Obih-Frank and the 777 series. Recently, I decided to simplify and now use the shorter - Eliz Frank.
